Set on approximately ±1 acre in the serene setting of Santa Barbara, this mid-century residence offers a striking harmony of architecture and nature. Upon arrival, you are welcomed by a distinctive deck designed around two beautiful oak trees, leading to a calming water fountain at the entry—creating an introduction that evokes a sense of harmony and tranquility. From the very first step inside, that feeling of serenity carries through every space. The entry opens directly to a light-filled kitchen and dining area, seamlessly extending outdoors to expansive view decks. From here, the plan cascades to the living room below a dramatic space defined by soaring beamed ceilings, bold architectural lines, a stone fireplace, and expansive windows that frame mountain views as living art while filling the interiors with natural light. The private primary suite occupies its own level, offering a sitting area, fireplace, generous closet, a flexible office area, and a secluded deck that enhances the sense of retreat. Its bathroom features a beautiful soaking tub with views to the natural surroundings, creating a spa-like experience. Outdoors, generous decks provide inviting spaces for dining, lounging, and entertaining, all set against the dramatic backdrop of the Santa Ynez Mountains. Each perspective offers a unique vantage point, enriching the home's connection to its natural surroundings. Situated between Franceschi and Parma Parks, the residence feels private and immersed in nature, yet just minutes from town. Plans for an ADU add further opportunity, offering the flexibility to expand this mid-century retreat into a multi-generational haven or guest enclave.
